From tho Chicago Dally Tribune.
One ot the most courteous and polite
representatives of tho south who ever
came to Washington Is ox-Senator Ran

ly returned to this country from Mexico,
where bus was tho American minister. It
thcro Is anythlng"Matt Runsoni,"as ho Is
called, prides himself upon It is his court
ly manner and distinguished bearing un
der any and all circumstances. But ids
dignity was given a Jolt at tho Metropol
itan hotel a day or two ago In a manner
that the punctilious North Carolinian
will never forcet.
Only a few minutes before tho Incident
occurred he had been lecturing a constit
uent on the evils of drinking and point
ing to himself as an e::umplo of sobriety
and total abstinence. Hanslng upon his
arm at this time was a lightweight over
coat, and his hand was tightly gripped
around the handlo of a small leather
satchell. One of the bellboys grabbed tho
overcoat and satchel tlmultaneously for
the purposo of taking them up to Mr.
Ransom's room. In hli hasto the bell
boy tripped und sprawled on tho floor
and a susplclous-looklng black bottle
slipped out of one of the overcout pockets
and wus smashed Into a thousand pieces
on tho marble floor of the hotel corridor.
"There goes my bottlo of catsup," said
Mr. Ransom, vlthout changing a muscle
of his face. But the odor that arose tro.u
the marblo floor was suggestive of the
strongest liquor ever brewed by a North
Carolina moonshiner.

Strong Letters Emphatically Endorsing Peruna,
the National Catarrh Remedy.
independent Letters to Dr. Mailman
All three of these Gentlemen have Personal Knowledge of the Virtues of
Pe-ru-na. Each tells how He has been helped by It. -Several other
Letters from People Pe-ru-na has Permanently Cured -
Managing large affairs successfully is a constant nervous strain. From nervousness to catarrh Is
but a step. The source of catarrh is in the mucous membrane, which is a mass of nerves. The letters
here printed from the Sells Brothers, owners of the great combined Forcpaugh and Sells' Shows,
describe the peculiar strain to which each is subjected in carrying on their immense business. That
Pc-ru-na has been a great help to
not strange, as it is perfectly adapted to assist nature
in throwing off the evil effects of nervous strain
and faulty digestion.
Pe-ru-na is a scientific catarrh remedy.
It docs not attempt to reach catarrh by local
treatment, for catarrli cannot be treated
locally without harm. It reaches out for
the very roots of catarrh by making its
existence impossible.
Mr. EiMt. Sells says, " I would not
be without it for any money. Here
is his letter:
Dr. S. B. Hartman, Columbus, O.
Dear Sir: Your Pc-ru-na is cer
tainly one of the very best tonics that
was ever brought to my attention. As
the financial manager of the great com
bined Forcpaugh and Sells Brothers'
Shows, I am necessarily subjected to
constant strains of the nervous system
and brain. This kind of wear and tear
makes me feel frequently in need of a
good tonic to assist digestion and to keep
my nerves steady and my brain cool. I
find in Pc-ru-na exactly such a tonic. It
produces an even and natural appetite, aids
in digestion, and procures sound and refresh
ing sleep. I would not be without it for any

Pe-ru-na Drug Mfg. Co.
Dear Sirs: You are putting upon
the market one of the best remedies of
which I have any knowledge. Wher
ever I travel I hear Pe-ru-na spoken
of in the highest terms. My personal
use of it also leads me to know of
its remarkable efficacy in all cases of
chronic catarrh, coughs, colds and
chronic affections. A few doses of
Pe-ru-na will cure colds, stop coughs,
and prevent what would otherwise be
come chronic catarrhal conditions. I
trust that the Pc-ru-na Drug Mfg. Co. will
meet with the success that the merits of
their great remedy entitles them. I recom
mend Pc-ru-na to everybody.
Very respectfully yours,
The catarrli problem is complicated. Many of
the most serious diseases are catarrh under other names.
Catarrh cannot be cleared up anywhere by any remedy that will not clear it up everywhere, Dr,
Hartman's books on catarrhal diseases are plain, open common sense, and arc scientifically sound.
They prove a revelation to nine-tenths of their readers.
No person interested in the subject should fail to write for one or more of these books. They are
called "Chronic Catarrh," "The Ills of Life," and "Winter Catarrh." Any or all mailed free on
application lo the Pe-ru-na Drug Mfg. Co., Columbus, O. Pe-ru-na may be obtained of all druggists,
Special book for women, called "Health and Beauty," mailed to women only.

The letter of Mr. Peter Sells is as em
phatic as that of his brother. He writes:
Pe-ru-na Drug Mfg. Co.
Dear Sirs!: I wish to say a word in
praise of Pc-ru-na. My business as
advertising agent of our immense con
solidated show makes it necessary for
me to be constantly on the go; a
constant change of climate and diet.
This will sooner or later derange the
strongest man's digestion. I find
Pc-ru-na an admirable remedy to cor
rect the evils which follow a constant
change of diet. I would not be with
out Pe-ru-na in my travels. No better
remedy for catarrh of the stomach can
be found. With an occasional use of
Pc-ru-na I find myself always in splendid
health and good spirits.
Very sincerely yours,
PETER SELLS.
